Sure, no stress!

I've put together a very quick "git crash course", which might help you getting acquainted and started with git. <http://www.secure-computing.net/wiki/index.php/OpenVPN/git_crash_course> Also see the developers docs for more resources: <http://www.secure-computing.net/wiki/index.php/OpenVPN/Developer_documentation> I can especially recommend the ProGit Book (there is a link on the Developer docs page) It's a good starting point when you want to learn and/or understand more about git and its features. kind regards, David Sommerseth -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkvVi2gACgkQDC186MBRfrrB8gCfayAZB1a2Qx3Qb6EVvLDSWggI 2DMAmwbYjPfYZvM+aVNTOUvW0fbs1HVN =ZsNw -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
